A Multifrequency Global View of Callisto’s Thermal Properties from ALMA
The Planetary Science JournalWe present thermal observations of Callisto’s leading and trailing hemispheres obtained using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) at 0.87 mm (343 GHz), 1.3 mm (233 GHz), and 3 mm (97 GHz).

A virtual tour of the Galilean Satellites [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2010 Galileo's imagination was quick to comprehend the importance of the 4 starry objects he observed near Jupiter in January 1610, not only for himself as a scientist but for our common understanding of the place of the Earth and our species in the cosmos.

Revealing Callisto’s Near-subsurface Thermophysical Properties with ALMA Calibration Data
The Planetary Science JournalThermal images at different wavelengths probe varying subsurface depths of planetary bodies and therefore can inform us about their compositions, thermophysical properties, and impact histories.

Report of the Terrestrial Bodies Science Working Group. Volume 7: The Galilean satellites [PDF]
, 1977 The formational and evolutionary history of natural satellites, their mineralogical composition and other phenomena of scientific interest are discussed. Key scientific questions about IO, Ganymede, Callisto, and Europa are posed and the measurements and

Origin of Europa and the Galilean Satellites
, 2017 Europa is believed to have formed near the very end of Jupiter's own accretion, within a circumplanetary disk of gas and solid particles. We review the formation of the Galilean satellites in the context of current constraints and understanding of giant planet formation, focusing on recent models of satellite growth within a circumjovian accretion disk

Jupiter and Its Galilean Satellites [PDF]
, 2012 Jupiter is one of the two most studied planets other than Earth in our Solar System. It is the largest, fastest rotating, has the strongest magnetic field, and an incredibly diverse set of satellites, most prominent of which are the four Galilean ...

Impact of Jupiter’s Heating and Self-shadowing on the Jovian Circumplanetary Disk Structure
The Planetary Science JournalDeciphering the structure of the circumplanetary disk (CPD) that surrounded Jupiter at the end of its formation is key to understanding how the Galilean moons formed.

A primordial origin of the laplace relation among the Galilean satellites
, 2002 Understanding the origin of the orbital resonances of the Galilean satellites of Jupiter will constrain the longevity of the extensive voicanism on lo, may explain a liquid ocean on Europa, and may guide studies of the dissipative properties of stars and
